15th march 09 Rothiemurchus Forest nr Aviemore
pines to marvel in grandiose pose and with rare undercanopy. Froggy on a wet
ditch side just off the track - not enjoying my handling however gentle (if
it's a wee toad please forgive my amphibious ignorance!). A horse hoof
fungus (wonder why?) and beautifully rugged lumpy bark of an ancient silver
birch.
Along the road at a wee tea room on the edge of Alvie Estates, some rare
cakes and teas/coffees and all the birds to watch on the feeders - red
squirrel, blue tits, great tits, woodpecker, pheasants, chaffinches,
blackbird, etc...very close and exciting even through the glass.....
The Cairngorm Nature Reserve is a classic area and lots to explore. The
Rothiemurchus Forest is just such a wonderful environment.
Go and do it. Live Scotland's grandeur.
Best regards, Denis.
